World Cup 2006 Stage 2 Matches

First and second placed teams from Groups A-H in Stage 1 progress to Stage 2 of the World Cup tournament, which takes the form of a knock-out competition. All scheduled Stage 2 matches are shown below including dates, kick-off times, and venues. Note that the teams competing in these matches will not be known until after the completion of the group matches in Stage 1.

Winners of Stage 2 matches progress to the next round up until the World Cup Final, while the losers are eliminated from the competition. In the event of a match being tied after the normal 90 minutes of play, 30 minutes of extra-time (two periods of 15 minutes) will be played to decide the match. If the match remains tied after extra-time has been played, teams will take a number of penalty kicks (best of 5) to decide the match.
